2021-09-15

We are often fascinated by the appearance of a beautiful thing, but we have never explored another world of beauty hidden under its beautiful appearance. Glass mosaics in swimming pools, science museums, theaters, TV towers, kindergartens, playgrounds (horror houses), flower terraces, courtyard pavilions, temple gardens, furniture bathrooms, disco, skating rinks, bars, clubs, etc., especially at night The luminous effect is more prominent when the surrounding environment is dark and in indoor wall and floor applications. In the design and construction, if auxiliary lighting is matched with purple lights, energy-saving lights, and fluorescent lights, the building itself will have the feeling of emerald and jade, just after the lights are turned off, transparent and luminous, quiet and deep. The night adds to the building itself. Extraordinarily mysterious and infinitely romantic. These beautiful scenes will be remembered. Remember the artistic charm of it, do you know that its sintering process is also another form of artistic expression?

The sintering process of glass mosaic includes melting method and sintering method. The melting method is mainly made of quartz sand, limestone, feldspar, soda ash, colorant and emulsifier. After melting at high temperature, it is formed by the axial calendering method or the planar calendering method, and finally annealed. The sintering method is made of waste glass, adhesives and other materials through briquetting, drying, sintering and annealing processes. According to their production processes and the surface effect of the finished product, there are the following classifications:

① Sintered glass is pulverized into powder with glass (chemical composition is still silicon dioxide) and color material, adding an appropriate amount of binder and oxide, die-casting into green compacts of a certain size and size through a mold, and sintering at a high temperature in a kiln. Stained glass mosaic.

Production process of sintered glass mosaic: glass (chemical composition of silicon dioxide) and chemical pigments (depending on the color of the finished product), mechanically pulverized into powder, and then the appropriate amount of binders, oxides, and certain specifications The die is die-cast into a block-shaped green body, which is transferred to a high-temperature resistant and non-deformable ceramic pad through an assembly line, and then enters the kiln to be sintered at a high temperature (about 850 ° C), and then flows through the assembly line and blows to cool. Collected into the semi-finished product warehouse, and then mechanically and manually pick the qualified products and place them on a certain size and size mold, paste kraft paper on the front or net on the back, dry, and pack into products.

Characteristics of sintered glass mosaic: The characteristics of sintered glass mosaic are similar to those of fused glass mosaic, but its surface is rougher and more air bubbles. It is easy to hide dust and stain after pasting decoration, and its color is worse than fused mosaic.

② Venus (gold thread) mosaic: It contains a certain proportion of crystal grains of wire-like or dot-band metal (usually golden). It has a stained glass mosaic with obvious flashes when exposed to light. It is also called a golden sand mosaic or a gold mosaic.

You see, when we saw the beautiful glittering glass mosaic, did not even think that the production process of the original glass mosaic was so complicated, and only the word "art" can match such a sophisticated project. praise.
